Information that has been entered once will now serve the whole energy chain. The contracting parties' biomass and energy production IT systems will complement each other and allow easy and real-time management of the energy chain information – from tree plant to ashes and back to the forest in a controlled manner.

 

MHG Systems brings to the table its knowhow on the first part of the energy chain, i.e. managing biomass related field work and producing map and mobile services. Protacon completes the concept by offering energy companies, terminals, fuel suppliers, carriers, contractors, laboratories and authorities with tools to manage fuel related information. This joint service concept and modern technology will provide new best policies that will improve their customers' business operations.

The solution will promote even more environmentally-friendly energy production and it will also lead the way in decreasing the carbon footprint and improving the traceability of biofuel chains. The total carbon footprint can now be retrieved from a single system. According to international trends, the traceability of biofuels will soon apply to all energy production.

"MHG Systems' core competence lies in its in-depth experience on business models used in the international bioenergy and forest industries. The cooperation with MHG Systems will provide us with new distribution channels – especially to international markets", says the CTO of Protacon Ltd, Vesa Talvela.

"Protacon's expertise on optimising energy plant processes and supplying automation systems allows us to create a unique business model – to sell proven end-to-end solution to power plants and biofuel suppliers on a global scale", explains the Managing Director of MHG Systems, Seppo Huurinainen.
